In Quantum Conundrum, players take on the role of a young kid dropped off on his uncle's doorstep for the weekend; his uncle just so happens to be the brilliant, eccentric inventor, Professor Fitz Quadwrangle. Upon entering the Professor's vast manor home retrofitted with crazy technology to test his latest hypotheses, players quickly realize their uncle has gone missing. Fortunately, players soon gain access to Professor Quadwrangle's latest invention, the Inter-Dimensional Shift Device, which, at the press of a button, will shift the world around them to an entirely new dimension. In order to find him, players must use the newly found IDS Device to dynamically change the world to and from a variety of different dimensions to progress through the complicated Quadwrangle Manor. While on the journey, becoming adept at utilizing the various dimensions will help them trek from one bizarre and challenging room to the next. It might sound easy enough, but it is a tall order for a kid in a giant puzzle of a manor!
Players in Quantum Conundrum will be given access to five unique dimensions via the Inter-Dimensional Shift Device (IDS), an invention created by their Uncle, the brilliant, eccentric inventor, Professor Fitz Quadwrangle. Those five dimensions include Normal, Fluffy, Slow-Mo, Reverse Time, and an unannounced dimension that will be revealed during GDC 2012. With their Uncle mysteriously vanished, players must use the IDS to help them solve puzzles by controlling the world around them through the switching of dimensions. Only by altering the laws of physics and time itself can players move from room to room in their Uncle's vast and weirdly complex manor home.
The Fluffy Dimension is the first alternate reality the player will gain access to in Quantum Conundrum. Fluffy's effects on the world might be all pink, soft and cute but players will quickly discover that the function of the dimension just might be the hard line between successfully solving a puzzle and restarting the level.
When players engage the Fluffy Dimension, everything in the world instantly turns pink, plush and light – like a world gone the way of cuddly and adorable cottonballs! While cute, there is also a practical use for all of this rampant fluffiness – heavy objects instantly become significantly lighter. Players can now move, carry and throw previously heavy objects – like metal safes – in order to build ramps and ladders, hit switches, or even get those objects airborne for bizarrely intricate reasons. The Fluffy Dimension, in conjunction with the other alternate realities, will help players solve puzzles and continue their search for their missing Uncle through his vast manor home.
Key Features
- Engaging Puzzle Gameplay: Using the Inter-Dimensional Shift Device, players will shift to and from various dimensions to manipulate the world around them and clear levels with increasing degrees of difficulty.
- Experience New Dimensions: Each dimension the player gains access to becomes a valuable asset to manipulate objects in the manor in a specific way. For example, the Fluffy Dimension makes heavy objects ten times lighter, enabling players to move what was once an immovable safe from one place to the next.
- Immersive, Interactive Environment: In addition to the various dimensions allowing the player to learn new skills and techniques, the look and feel of each dimension is completely distinct. When shifting to the Fluffy Dimension, everything in the room becomes soft and plushy like a cuddly version of its previous state. Every dimension carries its own atmosphere, letting the player feel like they are truly in the world.
- Unique Art Style and Humor: The Professor's manor and all the items within it have a unique style, but that's not all. Players should be on the lookout for humorous touches and jokes scattered throughout the manor home. Who wouldn't want to know what the infamous Professor Quadwrangle looks like in the Fluffy Dimension?

This will be the 72nd meeting between the teams following a 13-year gap. UMass holds a 36-33-2 edge. UMass enters game as the Mid-American Conference's newest member following its upgrade to FBS (formerly Division I-A). This could be the rekindling of a New England rivalry that would serve the area well, not to mention the teams' fans. Both coaches, Paul Pasqualoni of UConn and Charley Molnar at UMass, say a game on a yearly basis would be good.

Unvanquished is a first-person shooter and strategy game created by Unvanquished Development. Players fight online in team based combat in a war of aliens against humans. The game is available for most major platforms (Linux, Mac and Windows). Support for other platforms (e.g., BSD) is partially completed but not officially supported.
While the humans are equipped with conventional weapons—ranging from the standard-issue rifle to the powerful Lucifer Cannon—the aliens fight with pincers, mandibles, electrical, and projectile attacks. The game has a high emphasis on team-play: lone players are easy pickings for an opposing team who travels in groups. RTS-like strategy comes into play in the form of base-building: each map has a default base for both teams, but players are free to expand or move however they please. Similarly, a team wins by destroying the opposing team's spawn points and killing any remaining members of that team before they are able to rebuild.

A new feature for the Linux Game Database was just been deployed!
Every registered user can submit links to reviews and ratings of games. From all the submitted ratings a
Metascore Metarating will be calculated and shown along with the already implemented user rating. On the right side of every game page is a link to submit the rating.
To lighten the burden of the server the
metascores metaratings will be stored in the database and only visible after the site cache has been cleared (approximately every 4 hours).
The next weeks are for testing and streamlining the complex system, specially the usability still needs work. Hoping for lots of ratings and feedback!
100 percent? looks a bit strange/weird.
Are you asking why they have so many 100 ratings? i can only answer for the first site. Victory games only rate 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 out of 5 stars, so you will only have 100, 80, 60, 40 or 20 ratings.
abandonia reviewers just have different criteria than others i guess ;)

Olivier Blanchard is a cool guyApril 2nd, 2010 by ftobia
Olivier Blanchard, currently chief economist at the IMF, gave a talk at Georgetown on Wednesday 3/24. So, of course, I went to see him, since occasionally listening to awesome people talk is one of the fringe benefits of being a Georgetown student. His talk was titled "Rethinking Macroeconomic Policy", which as interesting to me because I rarely even think about macroeconomic policy, let alone rethink it. I'm going to summarize what I found most interesting and prescient in what he said.
Blanchard noted that monetary policy in the past has focused on one target and one instrument. He said that, in the future, monetary policy should instead have many targets and many instruments. His reasoning was that, while in this past crisis there was a housing boom, there wasn't an overall boom, so raising the federal funds rate may have slowed the housing sector, but it would have hurt other sectors. He also said that the future of central banks should be that they are 1) transparent about objectives, and 2) flexible as to their instruments.
Another thing I really like was an example of what Blanchard called a "schizophrenia" in economic thinking. When economists discuss fiscal policy, there is usually mention of automatic stabilizers, and how they are better than active policies because of the time lag of the political process. But, Blanchard noted, there is no talk about how to design better automatic stabilizers. It's like the progressive tax system and social services, exactly the way they exist now, just so happen to be optimal as automatic stabilizers. I think this is a really good point — from first-hand experience, I can vouch that Greg Mankiw's favorite textbook glosses over automatic stabilizers in this exact way.
Blanchard's thoughts seem to be consistent with my view that economics should become more of an engineering discipline than it currently is.

Endowed Gifts
Endowment – A Long-Term Commitment
The earnings from Virginia Wesleyan University's Endowment provide a regular stream of funds for programs such as scholarships, academic chairs and professorships, undergraduate research and library acquisitions.
The University's Endowment was valued at $53.3 million on June 30, 2011, representing a 19.8% investment return for the 2010-11 fiscal year. In 2011, distributions from the endowment contributed 6% of the operating budget.
The University strives to develop a robust endowment to provide reliable funding for academic priorities.
Endowed scholarships
Endowed Scholarships will enhance the University's competitiveness in attracting Phi Beta Kappa-caliber students. Making scholarships available will advance the University's goal of attracting and retaining more highly-qualified students; continue to diversify the student body by increasing the number of minority and international students; and increase the level of academic challenge on campus.
Endowed scholarship donors may meet their student recipients annually and receive an annual report on the growth of their fund. With an investment goal of 8% annually, we hope to grow your endowed fund by 3% compounded per year. Your endowed scholarship fund will forever impact our students while providing permanent recognition for your gift.
Endowed professorships and chairs
Since top faculty command a higher price in the marketplace, endowed faculty positions provide the resources to attract more top faculty. The University currently has seven endowed Chairs and Professorships.
More endowed chairs will increase the quality of teaching, the level of undergraduate research and the national reputation of the University. Students will immediately benefit from having national recognized experts in the classroom.

Brittany Kinser (Greeneville, Tenn.) led King offensively with 10 points and five rebounds. Teammates Mikki Oliver (Hampton, Tenn.) and Kelly Jackson (Lynchburg, Va.) each had nine points, followed by Brooke Johnson's eight points. Jackson was one of two Tornado players with a team-high nine rebounds. Kalen Collins (Wise, Va.) was the second King player with nine rebounds while adding six points.
King (0-5, 0-1) led 30-27 after the first half but fell victim to turnovers and Central State converting on those additional opportunities. The Marauders turned the tide of the game and broke away from the Tornado, forcing 15 second half turnovers after King had only nine in the first.
The Tornado played well defensively, limiting the Marauders to a 32 percent shooting mark throughout the game and only 20 percent from behind the arc.
"This was our best defensive game of the year," said Head Coach Josh Thompson. "The set we played tonight was well executed and matched what they [Central State] was showing well."
King shot 32.1 percent from the field and 35 percent on their three-point attempts. However, the Marauders outrebounded the Tornado 52-44 and held a 24-11 edge on the offensive glass to help toward their victory.
Next on the schedule as part of the 10th Annual Ben Waterman Classic is Cedarville University (5-1). King will play the Yellow Jackets at 12:00 p.m. from Beacom/Lewis Gymnasium, concluding the four-team, two-day tournament.
The basketball classic is named in honor of the late Ben Waterman who, after an outstanding career as a student-athlete at Central State, spent more than half a century in coaching at the high school and collegiate levels. He was voted the school's Outstanding Athlete of 1948 for his participation in basketball, baseball and football. He spent more than half a century coaching in the Ohio college and high school ranks and as an assistant Ohio State was the first African-American coach in the Big Ten. As coach of Dayton's Jefferson High School, Waterman led the Broncos to two state championships in a five year period. Waterman was a member of the inaugural class of Central State's Athletic Hall of Fame and has also been recognized with induction into the Dayton Basketball Hall of Fame and the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame.

In a significant step towards creating a new sensor for robotics, UK researchers from the universities of Strathclyde and Leeds have recreated the basic hardware for artificial echolocation.
Bats are capable of imaging their surroundings in great detail using echolocation. To apply similar methods to human engineering systems requires the capability to measure and recreate the signals used, and to understand the processing applied to returning echoes. In this work, the emitted and reflected echolocation signals of Rousettus aegyptiacus are recorded while the bat is in flight, using a wireless sensor mounted on the bat. The sensor is designed to replicate the acoustic gain control which bats are known to use, applying a gain to returning echoes that is dependent on the incurred time delay. Employing this technique allows emitted and reflected echolocation calls, which have a wide dynamic range, to be recorded. The recorded echoes demonstrate the complexity of environment reconstruction using echolocation. The sensor is also used to make accurate recordings of the emitted calls, and these calls are recreated in the laboratory using custom-built wideband electrostatic transducers, allied with a spectral equalization technique. This technique is further demonstrated by recreating multi-harmonic bioinspired FM chirps. The ability to record and accurately synthesize echolocation calls enables the exploitation of biological signals in human engineering systems for sonar, materials characterization and imaging.
In a first step, the team mounted miniature wireless microphone sensor on six Egyptian fruit bats. This allowed them to record the bats' double-click echolocation calls, and its returning echoes, during the bats' flight.
The team then went on to create an ultrasonic loudspeaker and electronics that accurately reproduces the bats' clicks. Their system recreates the bats' natural acoustic gain control which allows bats to emit high-intensity calls, while still hearing the weak echoes returning from surrounding objects.
The researchers are now planning to apply their methods to positioning of robotic vehicles.

Cruz, Sadler win runoffs
The vote totals weren't overwhelming, but they were better than expected.More than 1,100 Howard County voters went to the polls during Tuesday's state primary runoff election that resulted in Tea Party favorite Ted Cruz wresting the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate away from the presumptive favorite, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst. Although Howard County's vote total of 1,169 represented only 7 percent of the number of registered voters, it still came as a surprise to Election Administrator Saundra Bloom."We had more than we expected, actually," Bloom said. "I really didn't expect more than 500 voters. This was a pretty big runoff by past Howard County standards."Tuesday's ballot included five state-wide runoffs — four Republican and one Democratic.In the GOP runoff, almost 55 percent of county voters chose Cruz over Dewhurst, a total that closely reflected state-wide totals which saw the former Texas Solicitor General trounce Dewhurst by 13 percentage points.County results in other Republican runoffs were:• Railroad Commission — Christi Craddick received 661 votes, compared to 383 for Warren Chisum.• Railroad Commission unexpired term — Barry Smitherman received 535 votes, while Greg Parker received 453.• Texas Supreme Court, Place 4 — County voters selected John Devine over David Medina by a 546-439 margin.There was only one Democratic race on the Howard County ballot, and again, area voters reflected statewide results as Paul Sadler easily defeated Grady Yarbrough for U.S. Senate nomination. Sadler received 35 votes locally, compared to 24 for Yarbrough.

Feb. 22, 2011
BOSTON — About 70 people stood patiently in front of Barnes & Noble at the Prudential Center in Boston on Tuesday. They were waiting to get their copies of U.S. Sen. Scott Brown's ballyhooed new autobiography, Against All Odds: My Life of Hardships, Fast Breaks, and Second Chances — and they were hoping to get them signed by the senator himself.
The buzz around Against All Odds has been building ever since Brown revealed in a 60 Minutes interview that he'd been the victim of sexual abuse as a child.
At the Prudential Center, some of Brown's supporters were still trying to figure out just what to make of that news. "I thought it was a little shocking that he came out and said that type of stuff," said Eric Moreira of Dartmouth.
"I respect him for that," Moreira added. "Definitely got a big buzz in the news recently. Not sure if that's to boost sales of the book or what — but I respect him for saying those things and being truthful."
But others were less interested in the motives behind Brown's disclosure than their possible consequences. Jan Petty of Boston said that Brown's story could be heartening to other sex-abuse victims.
"I don't know whether he's happy that that's what everyone is talking about," Petty said. "But I think he's going to probably help some people who've been through the same thing he has, and let them know that you still can make it."
Some conservatives have criticized Brown for his willingness to break ranks with his party and vote with the Senate's Democrats. But Petty has no problem with Brown's heterodoxy.
"Not really," she said when asked if she'd been disappointed by Brown's votes across party lines. "I thought he would have to do that in order to – hopefully – get reelected."
As of Tuesday afternoon, Against All Odds was number 30 on Amazon.com's list of its top 100 bestsellers.

t-shirt: H&M - jeans: Levi's - fake tattoo: Tattoo for a week
Of course I couldn't wait to wear my new Levi's. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who likes to put on ALL of their new stuff on, all at once, after going shopping. The top is new too: H&M often carries vintage style band shirts and since the band Ts you can buy online are usually a lot more expensive, I pounce on that shit. I restrained myself and only bought two: this one (THE WHO!) and a long sleeve Pink Floyd shirt (PINK FLOYD!).
I went all the way with the rock chick vibe and tacked on this AWESOME fake tattoo I picked up over at Tatto For A Week. I know that the design is probably an acquired taste (unlike, say, anything featuring birds or flowers), but I dig it all the way. SO BOLD! And dia de los muertos-style! I'm thinking of creating a proper halfsleeve with fake ink but it's not easy to find the right components. This will probably be part of it though.

The correlation of colors and championships
All my life I have been a huge basketball fan (Arkansas for most of that time), but I have always had a core group of teams that I absolutely despised.
It didn't matter who these teams were playing, I always rooted for their opponent (unless of course it was one of my other hated teams).
But once I started to think about it, I noticed that all of the teams I had a grudge against had something in common — aside from being the perennial "super teams" — the primary color for each of these schools was blue.
For the full column, see Thursday's Malvern Daily Record.

A group of disaffected priests from the Society of Saint Pius the Tenth (SSPX) that left and formed their own organization when the SSPX began dialogue with the Holy See concerning reconcilliation. The SSPV advocate Sedevacantism, which means they believe that the Papal Office is vacant, and the current Pope is an antipope. Most members will contest the Papal reigns of Blessed John XXIII, Paul VI, John Paul, Blessed John Paul II, and Benedict XVI, although some do accept the legitimacy of Blessed John XXIII's reign. The SSPV do not hold the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) as valid and binding on Catholics because they believe that it's decrees contradict the traditional Catholic faith and are "heresy." The SSPV rejects the Ordinary form liturgy of Paul VI, and celebrates all the Sacraments (Especially the Eucharist) according to the Traditional Latin Missal. The SSPV, like many other Sedevacantist groups claim that they are the true Catholic Church, and the Modern Church is Heretical, sometimes citing the apocalyptic warning given by Our Lady of Salette.
In short a marginalized group, excommunicate from the Catholic Church proper, who make up a small minority of the world's traditionalists.

As usual, deafening silence from Rome
Only the sickened, warped mind of Martin Luther Mahony could twist his self-made crisis in the priesthood into something that only the deranged could even conceive of as a sign of God's deep love for the Church. Say goodbye to the Sacramental priesthood in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, and say hello to the further Protestantization of the Catholic Church under the banner of "The Spirit of Vatican II".
From The Tidings, the LA archdiocesan newspaper;
The [parish] councils ensure that, in directing parish life, pastors collaborate with laity in what Cardinal Mahony in his 2000 pastoral letter, As I Have Done for You, called "a broadly based shared ministry". In his letter, Mahony altered the priest's office as stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church as sanctifying, teaching, and ruling, to "sanctifying, teaching, and guiding."
"What some refer to as a 'vocations crisis' is, rather, one of the many fruits of the Second Vatican Council, a sign of God's deep love for the Church, and an invitation to a more creative and effective ordering of gifts and energy in the Body of Christ," said Mahony.
The Archdiocesan Pastoral Council is an important group, since, Mahony told the inaugural meeting, it will oversee implementing the synod's six pastoral initiatives, which include the establishment of lay leadership of parishes -- Parish Life Directors.
Deacon Gus Sebenius addressed the meeting to report on a November meeting of an archdiocesan staffing planning conference that discussed the results of a 2006 parish viability study. The study, according to the Tidings, "reported that 40 percent of parishes would choose to twin with another parish and share one pastor, and 35 percent are interested in having a parish life director to manage administrative responsibilities while a sacramental priest minister is available to say Mass and focus on pastoral ministry."
I can see the ad in The Tidings now... "for as little as $50, Father Skippy will visit your worship space and consecrate all your Oreos and grape juice. Make your reservations now. The number of priests is diminishing daily, Glory be to Vatican II!!"

On his 30th birthday, June 27, 2009, Dan [McLaughlin] had decided to quit his job to become a professional golfer.
He had almost no experience and even less interest in the sport.
What he really wanted to do was test the 10,000-hour theory he read about in the Malcolm Gladwell bestseller Outliers. That, Gladwell wrote, is the amount of time it takes to get really good at anything — "the magic number of greatness." ...
The Dan Plan will take six hours a day, six days a week, for six years. He is keeping diligent records of his practice and progress. People who study expertise say no one has done quite what Dan is doing right now. ...
Back when he first pitched his idea to Christopher Smith, a Nike-affiliated coach who has written a book about golf, Smith was not just uninterested. He was insulted. Golf is famously frustrating. Smith told Dan it was much harder than he thought. He told him to Google K. Anders Ericsson at Florida State University, a psychology professor and a leading expert on expertise.
Dan Googled him. Then called him. Then read his scholarly work. Smith started to think Dan was more committed than he had originally thought. Perhaps Dan was an opportunity. How would he teach golf to a person who was relatively fit, clearly willing and totally untouched, with no bad habits to undo because there were no habits at all?
Dan persuaded Smith to coach him. He got Nike to give him some free shoes, clothes and clubs. He set up a Twitter account, a Facebook page and a blog at thedanplan.com. By now, on Dan's loose team of interested consultants are Smith, Ericsson, a personal trainer in Portland and a professor of kinesiology at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas.
Here's how they have Dan trying to learn golf: He couldn't putt from 3 feet until he was good enough at putting from 1 foot. He couldn't putt from 5 feet until he was good enough putting from 3 feet. He's working away from the hole. He didn't get off the green for five months. A putter was the only club in his bag.
Everybody asks him what he shoots for a round. He has no idea. His next drive will be his first. ...
People, of course, have become world-class after practicing 10,000 hours, in golf and tennis and violin or anything else. But never, not in anything, according to Ericsson, has anyone done it like this: to start at this age, with no experience, and to keep statistics from the beginning, and to be so self-reflective about it, and to last even this long. Dan, Ericsson says, is "like Columbus here, sailing out in new territory."

Known for their simplicity and versatility, Bali Light Filtering Roller Shades are perfect for those who want a stylish window treatment that lets filtered light shine through. These roller shades are available in varied opacities, all of which block damaging UV rays and reduce heat transmittance.
Bali Light Filtering Roller Shades offer several options for customization. They are available in fashion-forward colors, and can be embellished with a scalloped hem and matching trim. A variety of lift choices is also available to tailor these shades to meet your specific needs. Made from 100% polyester, these shades are well suited for any room.
Install time: 20 minutes
We Recommend:
Continuous chain loop is helpful for operating wider, heavier shades.
Cordless lift eliminates the hassle of cords and the possibility of cord entanglement, and features a unique dual-speed breaking system and tension control.
The Smart Pull system, perfect for hard-to-reach shades, lets you raise or lower your shade with a few simple tugs of a pull cord which never changes in length.
AutoView™ Motor Control lets you control multiple hard-to-reach shades from anywhere in your home, up to 65 feet. An optional single channel remote is also available to control shades individually or in a group.
If you would like your shade to unroll from the front of the roll, rather than from the back, specify a reverse roll.
- Light-filtering fabrics do reveal shadows and silhouettes to the outdoors. If total privacy is needed, a Blackout Roller Shade might be a preferable choice.

Two graduation ceremonies are held each year on the La Plata Campus for students attending classes at all sites. These ceremonies take place in January and May. All degree and certificate recipients in attendance are recognized.
An annual Honors Reception (held prior to graduation in May) honors those students whose academic work in specific areas of study is meritorious. Each academic division views this event as an opportunity to recognize promising students.
There are three levels of honors awarded at the completion of degrees or certificates: highest honors-a cumulative grade point average of 3.9 to 4.0; high honors-a cumulative grade point average of 3.75 to 3.89; and honors-a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 to 3.74.
Students must have earned at least one-half of their degree or certificate credits at CSM in order to be eligible for honors. The honors designation is recorded on the transcript, based on all CSM courses included in the degree or certificate.

Please note that everyone may be subject to a bag check before entry. We encourage you to leave large bags, purses, diaper bags, and backpacks in your vehicles or at home, as these will be subject to the bag check process at the door. We appreciate your cooperation and patience.
There is a seating section for elderly or disabled guests. Due to limited space, the college recommends that the person with the disability and only one other guest sit in the accessible seating section. Additional members of your party should sit in the regular seating areas.
Congratulations! You have made monumental strides to build a strong foundation for your future by completing your program of study. We look forward to celebrating your success.

There is large variation in the outcomes of specific ECCE interventions. To maximize the benefits of these interventions, the design of an ambitious national investment in children should be guided by research findings identifying the characteristics of particularly successful ECCE efforts. One of the clearest findings is the importance of the characteristics of child care providers and staff. Some of the most important characteristics are credentials, schooling, and experience, but other characteristics related to quality are intangible ones, such as energy, enthusiasm, and motivation (Blau 2001).
However, the low pay of child care workers presents a severe barrier to attracting the type of workforce at scale that would maximize the benefits of ECCE. Table 1 , reproduced from Gould (2015), highlights that child care workers are overwhelmingly female (95.6 percent) and disproportionately workers of color (39.9 percent, versus 33.9 percent for other occupations). In part because of the lingering labor market penalty suffered by women and workers of color, child care workers receive very low hourly pay, many significantly below the state median wage. However, their low pay is not just a function of their demographic characteristics—these workers face a wage penalty even after controlling for relevant worker characteristics. Gould (2015) has documented that the wage penalty for child care workers is 23.0 percent even when compared with demographically similar workers in other occupations.Table 1
* Race/ethnicity categories are mutually exclusive (i.e., white non-Hispanic, black non-Hispanic, and Hispanic any race).
Note: To ensure sufficient sample sizes, this table draws from pooled 2012–2014 microdata.

Copy the code below to embed this chart on your website.
The effect of child care workers' demographic characteristics being consistently penalized in the U.S. labor market, along with the occupation-specific wage penalty, combine to make median hourly wages for child care workers nationally just $10.31, 39.3 percent below the $17.00 median hourly wage of workers in other occupations. In fact, one in seven child care workers (14.7 percent) live in families with income below the official poverty line, compared with 6.7 percent of workers in other occupations. After accounting for demographic differences between child care workers and other workers, child care workers are 5.9 percentage points more likely to be in poverty than similar workers in other occupations (Gould 2015). Current proposals to set a wage floor for child care workers at $15 an hour would directly raise wages for 60 percent of child care workers, for a total wage increase of $156 million per week. 13

Ecological Methodology
Benjamin/Cummings, 1999 - Science - 620 pages
This text aims to translate the methods of statisticians into ecological English, so that students may readily apply these methods to the real world. The book offers a balance of material on animal and plant populations and teaches students of ecology how to design the most efficient tests in order to obtain maximum precision with minimal work. Rather than emphasizing the derivation of mathematical formulae, the text emphasizes the use of statistics, and focuses on how to measure ecological parameters such as population size and species diversity. Students learn effective ways to set up field experiments and observations and the different methods that work best for different situations.

At PLASA 2009, JBL Professional is introducing the MSC1 Monitor System Controller, a remarkable new product that integrates monitor system control and tune-ability at a most accessible price point. The MSC1 Monitor System Controller includes features found in large mixing consoles to control essential monitoring functions from the mix position. Since the acoustic issues in the room can compromise the quality of the mix, the MSC1 includes JBL's highly acclaimed RMCâ"¢ Room Mode Correction Technology that tunes the monitor system to over come low frequency problems in any room. The affordable MSC1 works with any speaker system, and is the perfect add-on to JBL's new LSR2300 Series studio monitors.
The MSC1 provides the ability to monitor up to three 2-channel input sources, such as a mixing console, computer workstation, and personal music player while controlling the volume of the monitor system and connected headphones. The MSC allows connection of two sets of speakers and a subwoofer. The primary "A" speaker outputs include user-defined monitor EQ and JBL RMC to tune the system to the room. The subwoofer output has its own level control, selectable crossover settings and RMC to perfectly blend a sub with the "A" speakers. The "B" speaker outputs allow connection of a secondary set of studio monitors. Included MSC1 Control Center Software allows access to user-adjustable settings including speaker equalization, subwoofer crossover frequency, subwoofer polarity and level, and fine-resolution delay that can be applied to compensate for variations in speaker and subwoofer distance relative to the listening position.
Since much of today's production is carried out in rooms with less-than-perfect acoustics, the MSC1 Monitor System Controller includes JBL's highly acclaimed RMC Room Mode Correction Technology. RMC measures the room and automatically tunes the speakers to compensate for low frequency anomalies caused by room modes, proximity to walls and the work surface. RMC calibration is simply carried out using a supplied calibration microphone and MSC1 Control Center Software. During the RMC calibration, the software measures the room, calculates and downloads corrective filter coefficients to the MSC1 and balances the primary speakers and subwoofer within a ¼ dB. Following calibration, the MSC1 operates as a stand-alone unit without the need for connection to a computer.
"Our LSR6300 and LSR4300 Series Studio monitors were first speakers with RMC and they are embraced by professionals worldwide," said Peter Chaikin, JBL Director of Recording and Broadcast Marketing. "With the launch of our new LSR2300 Series Studio Monitors, we wanted to offer a most affordable solution that enhances the work-flow while tackling problems in the room. Our new MSC1 provides engineers and musicians with a highly affordable, highly functional option to turn any room into an optimized environment for mixing audio."
The MSC1 will be available in October 2009 at a US Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price of $375.00.

Show Your Support
Start this year on the right foot by making a charitable gift to support Binghamton University. Your help means so much to students like Charles Schmitz, Class of 2016.
As a first-generation college student, Charles admits the cost of college is "a little scary" for him and his parents.
"It's all new to us," Charles says. "There's the tuition and the expenses that go with (college). My family doesn't have money to just throw around."
As a donor, you can give students and their families some peace of mind. Your support helps students discover their potential, achieve their goals and thrive at Binghamton and beyond.
After graduation, Charles plans to conduct research in his major, integrative neuroscience. While he's at Binghamton, he volunteers in ways that connect his interests — working at American Red Cross blood drives and refurbishing computers for the Bridging the Digital Divide Project, which helps provide computers and training to others in the community who don't have access to these resources.
Your gift matters. Act now and make a big difference in students' success.

If you follow my Facebook page, you may have seen a similar image a few weeks ago, and read the story about how many tries it took to get an instance of the blue fire. Here it is again for those who missed it.
On Saturday night of the 2011 season opener, I was working in the pit lane when I noticed something visually striking. When some bikes were revved up by the mechanics in front of the pit boxes, every now and then some blue flame would appear deep within the exhaust pipe. This blue fire was visible for a tiny fraction of a second, but I thought if I could capture one appearance it would be an interesting image. We often see unburned fuel escape from engines and flame out from exhaust pipes, but during the day this fire is orange. But there is something about the night lighting in Qatar that makes it this distinctive blue.

(Reuters) - An executive of Taiwan-based AU Optronics was found guilty of fixing the prices of certain liquid crystal displays used to make the screens of televisions and computer monitors, the Justice Department said on Tuesday.
A jury found Shiu Lung Leung, a former senior manager in a desktop display unit, guilty of participating in the price-fixing scheme from about mid-2002 to the end of 2006, the department said.
The company in September was found guilty of price-fixing and fined $500 million. Two executives were previously sentenced to three years in prison. Former AU Chief Executive L.J. Chen, who remains a top executive at the company, was acquitted at the trial.
AU has said it would appeal the earlier convictions. At the trial, AU's lawyers asserted that the company "competed fiercely" and that the mere exchange of information between companies was not illegal.
Several other companies, including LG Electronics Inc, have pleaded guilty in the LCD probe.
Rival LG Electronics agreed to pay a $400 million fine in 2008, while Samsung Electronics Co Ltd cut an early deal to avoid prosecution.
AU Optronics manufactures a type of LCD panel for companies such as Apple, Dell, and Hewlett Packard, among others.

"Why would Mitt Romney steal the spotlight from our US Olympic athletes during the Olympics?"
This was my immediate reaction when I heard that Romney was announcing his choice for Vice President on Saturday morning. I couldn't understand why Mitt could not wait until after the Olympic ended Sunday night to make this announcement? And I can assure you that I would be asking the identical question if a Democratic presidential candidate had done the same thing. Respect for our Olympic aathletes should never be a partisan issue. (Although there's no doubt if President Obama had made a major political announcement during the Olympics, some on the right would claim it was a sign Obama didn't love America enough or some other attack on his patriotism.)
There was no rush for Mitt to make this announcement. He had made his choice of Congressman Paul Ryan as his running mate on August 1. He had waited this long to share it with us, why not wait a few more days so that our Olympians could receive the full media attention they deserve?
If Mitt had simply waited until Monday to make his announcement, it would not have had any negative impact on Romney's campaign. His choice of Ryan would have still clearly dominated the news headlines and been the story of the week.
Romney could have even waited till next weekend to inform us of his VP pick. The Republican National Convention doesn't kick off until August 27 and this announcement in the days before it would have built excitement for that event. Indeed, that's what John McCain did by announcing Sarah Palin as his running mate on August 28, 2008, four days before that year's nominating convention.
Instead, Romney chose to reveal his choice for vice president at a press spectacle on a US Navy battleship during a weekend showcasing close to 100 Olympic matches—including diving, cycling, women's volleyball, basketball, and track and field. And these events are almost all finals, which means the award of Olympic medals for the athletes competing.
Our American Olympians have trained and sacrificed for years to make it to this level. This is their chance to proudly represent the United States. It's also their opportunity to receive some well-deserved recognition for their work. For most of these athletes, this will be the pinnacle of their athletic career. There are no million-dollar paydays awaiting the bulk of them. This is their payday. This is their brief, but well-earned, shining moment.
People like Pittsburgh's Jake Herbert who is in his first Olympics ever wrestling at the 84kg level after a stellar college wrestling career. And University of Arizona Junior Brigetta Barrett who will be going for the gold this weekend in the Women's High jump. Or Nick McCrory, a diver who finished two places short of qualifying for the 2008 Olympics, but who continued to persevere and this year achieved his dream of donning the red, white and blue uniform in the Olympics.
And there are also the US Olympic teams competing for gold medals this weekend, such as the women's volleyball team which features athletes like Lindsey Berg, who was a back up player for the past two Olympics but finally in 2012 made it to be a starting player for the US team.
What makes the timing of this announcement even more astounding is that Mitt Romney was the head of the 2002 Olympic games. Consequently, he's fully aware of the daunting challenges these athletes had to overcome to make the US Olympic team. The pressures they are under to perform well while representing our nation. And the recognition they truly deserve for their efforts.
Why did Romney make his announcement now? Possibly because a new poll released earlier this week showed Romney now trailing President Obama by seven points and he felt compelled to so something now? Maybe he was feeling the heat from others in his party to make the announcement as soon as possible? We can't be certain.
But what we do know for sure is that Romney was aware that the Olympics games were taking place and that his announcement would overshadow our Olympic athletes. This selfish decision by Romney tells us possibly more about him as a person than any of his stands on the issues.

Description of Research ExpertiseResearch Summary
Research in our laboratory is focused on the contribution of failure of normal growth regulatory controls to the development of hematologic malignancies. Alterations in the balance of apoptosis and proliferation may lead to chronic leukemic states such as B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL). Consistent genetic defects have been difficult to identify in B-CLL; hence our focus has been on alterations in cytokine networks which may affect the cellular environment of the malignant clone. We showed that TGFbeta, a potent immunosuppressive cytokine which can induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation, is overproduced in mice and humans with B- CLL, but the leukemic B cells fail to respond to the apoptotic signals provided by TGFbeta. This defect in TGFbeta responsiveness is not due to a lack of expression of TGF receptors, but appears to be a failure in the signal transduction pathway for this cytokine. In addition to TGFbeta, we have investigated the role of T cell produced cytokines (IL4 and IFNg) in regulating the apoptotic process in CLL B cells.
We found a predominance of IFNg producing T cells in these patients as compared to normals, and that the leukemic B cells express higher levels of IFNg receptors. Interestingly, this cytokine has an extremely anti-apoptotic effect on the B cells. Thus, the leukemic B cell is producing a cytokine that can cause potent immunosuppression (and apoptosis) of other cells while being itself resistant and appears to be overly responsive to the anti-apoptotic effects of IFNg. Taken together, these aberrations could contribute to the survival and expansion of the malignant B cell. Current investigations are focused on the role of other cytokines in the control of hematologic malignancies, using both human and murine models, with the intent of identifying potent targets for therapy.
The laboratory is also involved in the development of new flow cytometric applications for research and clinical use. This includes basic and translational studies on applications for monitoring receptor/ligand binding, multiparameter functional studies, minimal residual disease detection, stem cell isolation and identification, and transplantation monitoring.

Dragonwizard wrote:Right now beyond the achievements for winning X battles in a row there is no consequences to forfeiting a match. But in 5.2 Blizzard is making it so if you forfeit not only will the pets that you're battleing respawn exactly the same quality and type as they where but all your pets will take "some damage". The amount of damage has yet to be posted and it is not yet implemented on the PTR to test.
Renmiri wrote:Doesn't forfeiting also kills the respawn, making people who still need that pet mad at you ?
Tiger8380 wrote:The thing I dont like about this is that you can't control which pets come out first in a tamer battle for bags. So I forfit until I get the pet match up that works. Most of the trainer battles if you don't get a good pet match up you pretty much just lose the battle or have a much harder time winning. I don't like that now I have to hope that the first time I get the proper enemy pet or just get screwed. This is my opinion alone but I really don't see the harm in allowing people to leave a pet battle without harm especially if you won't be able to use leaving battles to get faster/better chances at rare pets.

Gendou wrote:I believe forfeiting in 5.2 will also leave the pets up, making it a poor method of check/clearing a group.
In order to clear a group of spawns so new ones will spawn, you'll have to actually defeat the group.
... I could be wrong about that, however.

I think very highly of this website. I really liked the "room-mail" service. As a woman it made me feel more secure than giving out my email address to whoever wanted it. I had been searching for over a month before I signed up, and after I did I found my roommate in 2 days. Thank you so much. I will be referring my friends in the future. - Alice
Thanks so much! We found an awesome roommate through your service. This website is very easy to use, I know because I've tried other roommate services on-line and I loved using this one. Everyday I had at least four new matches that were automatically chosen based on the details I gave you. Once again, thank you so much! I will definitely be recommending this site to anyone who is in need of a room or roommate. - Cristine
